Korea National Bank issues $100 million blockchain digital bonds
According to the Korea Economic Daily, the National Bank of Korea successfully issued $100 million in blockchain digital bonds, marking the first instance in the country's banking sector. The bonds were issued through HSBC's digital asset platform Orion and will subsequently connect to the clearing and settlement system of the central depository and settlement institution under the Hong Kong Monetary Authority.
The National Bank of Korea will also utilize the digital bond subsidy program from the Hong Kong Monetary Authority to reduce some of the issuance costs. The bank stated that this issuance is part of KB Financial Group's "transformation and expansion" strategy, and following the completion of the technology validation for Korean won stablecoin payment settlement, it is accelerating the advancement of digital financial transformation.
